Good morning guys!
Long time no see!
Welcome back to
the channel.
If you guys are new to the channel, my name is Jamie, I'm a third year medical school
student and I'm vlogging my journey to share everything with you guys.
So I just woke up not too long ago.
It is early Saturday morning.
It's actually 11:20am.
I woke up not too long ago.
I just finished my first week of surgery rotation.
I was really nervous starting out my first couple days.
Actually, I have clips to show you guys from that day, so let me just show you guys.
Good morning everybody!
It's first day back from winter break.
It was really hard to wake up this morning because I've been sleeping in during winter
break and today we have lectures starting at 8.
Tomorrow, also lectures starting at 8 and then I think starting probably Thursday we
will have to be at the hospital much earlier for our actual surgery rotation.
I guess they're easing us in so that we have couple days of regular 8am mornings and then
they'll throw us in later in the week with the early mornings.
Probably, I'm thinking I'll have to be in the hospital by 5am.
That's how it was for my ob-gyn.
So that's my guess.
Anyway, I have to get ready.
I slept in till the last minute possible so I gotta hurry.
Alright guys, got my lunch.
In here is a salad with some breaded chicken I made yesterday, half and avocado, some apple
cider vinegar dressing, a string cheese and a pack of apple sauce.
There's one in here but I'm gonna have one too on my way and my protein shake cause I'm
in a hurry.
Alright, bye Candy!
I know, I will see you later!
Hi Candy!
So I'm back from the hospital and the gym.
Today was a pretty short day.
We were done with everything by like 2 o'clock.
I went to meet with my advisor for the rotation.
I got my schedule which is cool.
4 weeks of trauma surgery, 2 weeks of cardio-thoracic and then 2 weeks of surgical oncology.
So that's my schedule for the next 8 weeks.
First day of rotation is always very overwhelming because you get a packet that's like this
thick!
It's everything you need to know and everything you need to do for that rotation and there's
just so much stuff in one day that I don't know I felt pretty overwhelmed today but that's
how I feel pretty much for the first day of rotation.
But as you go through the week, it gets much easier and everything is digestable and definitely
do-able.
Everyone has done in the past and there is no reason why it's impossible for me.
So that's kinda like how I look at it.
For today, I'm just going to shift through the packet and try to figure out what my life
is going to look like for the next 8 weeks and just get myself situated and oriented.
So that's what I'm gonna do for the rest of the day.
I'm back home and I'm gonna make some food, feed Candy cause she looks pretty hungry so
see you guys later.
Alright!
Current situation: eating cereal and watching suture videos.
This was a video that was recommended to me by the clerkship at my hospital.
It's the Duke Suture skills course.
It goes thru all the basics sutures and ties that you need to know for your surgery rotations.
I have my old practice kit.
It's like so bad, I'm embarrassed to show you but I did these, I think, over the summer
but I have this new fake skin thing that I can practice on and get better than this mess.
So another reason why I was nervous was because in the past half of the first year that I've
been a third year med school student, a lot of times you feel like--obviously you're there
to learn but you're kinda also in the way if there is something emergent happening.
There is a clip that I saw online that exactly describes how I feel as a third year medical
school student.
I'll show it to your right now.
So in services like Family Medicine or Psychiatry or even the things that I've done before where
it wasn't so emergent.
It was fine to feel like I was a little bit in the way because eventually things got done
and nobody was hurt because of my presence there but I think I was nervous going into
trauma surgery because you know these are patients who come in after big accidents like
a fall or like a car accident--and things like that.
I really didn't wanna be in the way and get into the way of the patient's care.
But I think from the very few number of trauma codes that I've been into, the best thing
to do is sort of see how you can be helpful and just be a fly on the wall if that's what
you have to do but so far I feel I haven't gotten in the way of someone's care so that's
good.
Hopefully I'll learn more and actually be helpful to the team.
So I'm gonna make some breakfast and I will take you guys along my day.
So I just had breakfast and it's actually really snowy out today.
Let me show you guys.
Yeah so I think I'm gonna head to the gym now because if I wait any longer I think it
will be pretty dangerous to drive out so I will see you guys at the gym.
Hey guys so I'm back from the gym.
Actually, after the gym I went to school to get some studying done.
You guys know I'm in my surgery rotation.
So there are a couple books that I'm reading just to prepare myself for my rotation, actually
when I was studying I filmed my study session, I'm going to be launching a new channel just
for study with me videos because I know it can kinda be lonely just to study on your
own and I got a lot of really good feedback from my last study with me video and I know
study with me videos are sort of like you either it helpful or you don't watch it at
all.
So I thought it might be good to have a whole separate channel just solely dedicated those
study with me videos so I think by the time this video goes live that channel will also
be live so definitely go check it out, subscribe and let me know what you guys think!
So I'm all showered and clean.
I'm actually gonna do a little more studying just to prepare for my surgery rotation.
I wanna talk about a couple books--I know everyone recommends Dr. Pestana's surgery
notes which has been great so far.
Another book that was recommended to me by my mentor at the hospital is this book: Cope's
Early Diagnosis of the Acute Abdomen.
Some good stuff in here from the little that I've read so far.
So those are the two books that I'm reading for surgery and today I'm probably gonna go
to bed early.
I'm probably gonna go to bed at 9pm and getting up around 4am and get to the hospital by 4:45am.
Something that I've noticed in a lot of surgery heavy rotation like ob-gyn or surgery is that
the mornings are very very busy.
There's a ton of stuff to do in the morning and then after that by like 10 o'clock things
start to slow down a little bit unless there are surgeries and if there is, you go into
surgery.
In the afternoon you just do what you have to do to check up on patients and things like
that.
So there has been some days where I got home around like 4 or 5pm.
I haven't stayed too late most of the time but that's pretty much my schedule for surgery,
or the way it has been for the past few days.
Tomorrow, I'm actually on call.
Tomorrow is Sunday, I'm gonna be on call from Sunday morning 4:45am to probably Morning
morning like at 8am or so.
So it's a 24 hour call.
For a medical student being on call basically means you're going in on a day you normally
wouldn't be going in.
So whether that's nights or a weekend that's pretty much what it means to be on call.
So Sunday is my on call day.
In surgery rotation it's a 24 hour call, in other rotations the calls have been shorter
so sometimes I'd stay until 10pm or midnight but for surgery you stay overnight and then
you get the following day off.
So that's good.
So I'm definitely going to bed early tonight but I'm just gonna get a little more reading
done.
So it's about 7:30pm right now so I'm gonna stay up for another hour and a half and then
head to bed around 9pm.
So it's about 8:30 now.
I'm going to stop studying and get ready for bed.
Thank you guys so much for watching.
I hope you guys enjoyed the vlog.

with me channel.
Leave me a comment and let me know what you guys think and I will see you guys in the
next video.
Bye!
